That one is never going to die....Maddux screwed the pooch on that one and he can never take it back.
Our son was on that team and we know that family all too well. No class to not call or note to Maddox that they were changing teams in the middle of the annual cycle, which was unusual considering annual tryouts were in early fall then. It was also he week before the summer season. No phone call, no email and no responses to multiple emails and messages over several weeks. Madlax practiced at the field where that kid went to school. This narrative is horrendously whitewashed. Maddox was a petulant child and he is a jerk. But the parents on the other side were diabolical and self serving. Maddox had scholarshipped the club fees for that kid for years and lined him up with showcase invites. As a parent, I think the least people can do is be forthright and honest with people and teach the same to their kids. Here, that was not the case. This just as easily could have been and still could be a deadspin article about the worst lacrosse parents in the world as it was one about the worst of all lacrosse club owners.
